Friday, November 17, 2006. The day the sun really rose, as the Wii and PS3 were released. This marks the true beginning of the seventh generation of video games, and the third of 3D games.
Which do you prefer the most?
The first competitor to step up to the ring was Microsoft's Xbox 360. It had the head start, but technical difficulties were a putdown. The most awaited -exclusive - game for this system is probably Halo 3.
Simultaneously, Sony's Playstation 3 was released at the same time as Nintendo's Wii. The Playstation 3 features Blu-Ray, but the price of this system has led many to select one of the other two systems. The most awaited - exclusive - game for this system is probably Metal Gear Solid 4, or Heavenly Sword.
The Nintendo Wii. It's unusual, but appealing, Wiimote has intrigued many, but others disprove of it for it's strange name and lack of the graphics the other two systems have. The most sought out - exclusive - game for this system is probably Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess, or Super Smash Bros. 3

Wii graphics look terrible, and the PS3 is a ripoff. Wait another year to buy it, more games, cheaper, and bugs will be fixed I prefer PS3 becuase it can play blu-ray and it's powerful processors.

Gonna get a wii before either of the other two. Don't want a PS3 right off the bat because of the price and gow glitchy they are. The ones they shipped in Japan already have a recall on them because they were so glitchy. I never got an x-box because i never liked any games on it so I won't be getting a 360 for a while. The Wii appeals to me the most. I don't really care about the graphics of a game as long as i find it fun. Also, it seems to be the most "creative" of the three. Wii FTW.

*laughs* depends on what you want the console for. I myself am going to enjoy the Wii the most, for the new gameplay(new controls), and just overall fun aspect of it. *laughs*, Plus it will own for playing with friends.. Wii=Not as Pretty but FUN! The PS3 I see as being more of the same, with better graphics . Sure, they will have new gameplay addions and new gameplay ideas, but for the price? Might as well buy a badass pc (which I prefer the games on the pc, much more). It will rock as far as visuals no doubt!. PS3=Pretty more of the same In the end, its all about fun over graphics. Fun is what keeps people coming back, not graphics. Which is why I still play soldat

:: Edited first post to follow rules ::
I played a PS3 at Target today. NBA Live 07, I think. The graphics are terrific, and the controller feels the same as a PS2 controller, but the L2 and R2 buttons are a lot longer.

Well, it'll be at least a year before good third-party games are released for the Wii. (Look at Red Steel on Gamespot) It's an innovative idea, but there will be a large amount of failures surrounded by a few incredible games. I personally like the PS3 more, because it's first and foremost, a very powerful, conventional gaming system. The tilt function is just a nice touch that adds a bit of fun to games, as long as it isn't overused. (Think of gaming commercials in the past when people tilt their controllers while playing.) As for the Xbox 360, it'll be much more successful than the original Xbox, but once the PS3 comes out with all the blockbuster games and a price cut happens, it should come out on top again. And in Japan, the Xbox 360 is still bombing. ;D
